The trip

First of all, I thought it would be wise to tell a bit more about the trip. We’ll go on Sunday 31st of august, 6.20AM (ouch!) and be back the 12th of September…if everything goes well

After a short period in San Francisco to recover from the jetlag, we will go to a ghost town: Bodie. That’s quite a long trip so we decided to book a night at a hotel nearby the Mono Lake, a few miles away from Bodie.

Then of course we will spend a day at the Yosemite National Park. This looks huge! With a lot to see, a lot to do. I guess we won’t have the time to visit everything in one day, that’s why we booked another night outside the park.

So, this is what is planned. I must say I’m not too found about planned vacations, but we’ve been told it was better to book rooms during the high season.

We will also spend a day in the Sonoma valley for some wine testing. We’ve been told it was better to go there rather than to the Napa Valley.

I’m a big fan of Jack Kerouac and Henry Miller so this trip to California wouldn’t be complete without a day at Big Sur :) This is gonna be a lovely journey along the coast road!

Then, of course, San Francisco! The Golden gate bridge, Alcatraz, the cable car,Chinatown..well it’s a long list

For those of you who would like to visualize a bit more :
